Did you see what he was wearing? Was basically asking for it really.

The litigousness of the US is greatly exaggerated. Largely by big companies, trying to close off the one resource common folk have in dealing with them if they ever screw us over. Meanwhile, large conpanies file roughly 4 times as many suits than individuals, and are reprimanded for frivolous suits far more often.

Anydice.com can handle this stuff easily. As already pointed out in another comment, it does perfectly match. What it will not tell you is if you grabbed one or 2 arrows, though presumably a roll of 1-x could be used to say you got one, and x+1-15 means you got two.

Violet is, but I'm not sure the color labeled violet here actually is.

These are very region dependant. My state has no income or sales tax, but the property taxes are higher, my 1 acre with a mobile home is basically 3k. It's almost certainly cheaper than renting, but you can't just make sweeping statements like that.

..... I thought it was about communion....

Strong sharks are smooth energy.

If you reeeeally want to stretch, they do have rules about pricing things lower on other platforms. Like, you can have a sale on your website that makes it cheaper than Steam, but can't have the base price cheaper there than on Steam. That's about it.

My nose runs pretty much all fall/winter, it started about a week ago. No sore throat yet, that's nice, but I just found out a friend I just hung out with a few days ago tested positive for covid, so we'll see how long that lasts...

According to another comment, the sea bass version will only be for sale online. There will be no coming back to stores, normal goldfish won't be leaving stores at all.

Yeah, the dome in the cartoon doesn't seem egregious at all to me. It's that chiiiin.

Well, like I said, there is still a chance of collateral damage, which is why there has been so much study to try and make sure that isn't going to happen. We've been sitting on the ability to do this for a long time. As for chances of killing other species, I don't think that is a risk from the method. They basically just breed mosquitoes of the targeted breed, and modify their genes so they can only have male offspring which can also only produce male offspring, etc.

The biggest reason it may be different this time is previously we were all like, "let's exterminate dogs," and it turns out dogs are important. This time is more like "let's exterminate pitbulls." There will still be plenty of mosquitos around if the plan is ever put into motion, we are only targeting a very small slice of them. That doesn't mean there won't be issues, it could well be just as big a mistake as all the previous times. But at least it is more likely to work out.

Ahhh, OK, I see it now, thanks very much.

I feel dumb, I don't get the ace bit. Was it just slang, like he's cool, and then they swerved it? Or was there something that actually made the commentary think they were asexual in the image? Now I feel dumb and old.

The idea was it was supposed to be him losing track of the barrier between reality and his delusions. He did kill a girl in that apartment, it was not the ludicrously long chase we see though, for example.

I mean, they made to strafe tanks. Pretty sure they were actually terrible at that when first introduced.

There is evidence to show that violet does actually weakly activates red cones too. This is because the violet light starts creeping up to double the frequency of the lower end of the red sensitivity, and so it can actually successfully activate it very weakly. There are other factors that can lessen or even fully negate that effect though, it's all kind of fuzzy.

In the book, he and Gandalf were planning the party for months. The whole thing was his plan from the beginning.
